Review Summary

Reviews describe Sauce Buvette Du Quartier as a warm, inviting spot with a cozy atmosphere and attentive service that many say makes the evening special. The food earns frequent praise for generous portions and variety, with standouts like lobster ravioli, calamari, bresaola, whipped ricotta and focaccia, plus well executed braised beef and magret de canard, while a few dishes such as morue or certain pastas are noted as lacking depth. The wine list is enjoyed for its range, though some feel the program could be more cohesive or better aligned with the menu. Guests often highlight service that is friendly and professional, and several reviews mention a lively vibe with live music or an opera singer adding a memorable touch. The setting in Griffintown is repeatedly described as welcoming and intimate, though seating near the kitchen or on the terrace can affect intimacy and noise on busy nights. Overall Sauce Buvette Du Quartier is regarded as a hidden gem with good value for the neighborhood, a strong regular crowd, and a willingness to return for future occasions, with parking behind the restaurant noted as a plus.

We went for Valentine's Day & overall had a decent experience. The set menu was very reasonably priced, especially for the occasion, & the service was good. A special shoutout to the woman who stepped in on what was clearly a busy night, she was warm, attentive, & great.

The food was a mix. Some real highlights: the mushroom arancini bite was excellent, the magret de canard was very well done, & the dessert was my coup de coeur of the evening. However, the morue was quite disappointing (especially since it's usually something we love), & the tuna entrée felt very basic & lacked flavor. The braised veal was just okay.

The ambiance was also average. We were seated at the back near the kitchen hallway with storage directly behind our table, which made it feel less intimate than expected for Valentine's Day. It may have just been our table or the busy evening, but overall we left a little disappointed.

Went here for the spectra deal. Overall decent for the deal price, though the drinks were expensive for what they were.

The bresaiola & arancini apps were okay. My friends really enjoyed their braised beef, but the bisque pasta was kinda tasteless not at all like bisque. Also way too many cherry tomatoes dumped on it. Dessert was simple.

Wine was good, though at one point my friend got a mulled wine instead of a normal red. Not sure how that happened. My to-kill-a (tequila) spider just tasted like cassis & sugar.

Live music wasn't great unfortunately, & I'm usually pretty supportive of amateur acts. Cool decor though.

Service was friendly & accommodating but needed to be trained better. Not sure why they don't give you a bill with the price breakdown before paying.

Très bon restaurant italien. Les goûts sont prononcés & on aime ça.
Mention spéciale pour le dessert type poutine, vraiment très très très sympa !!
Pour une bonne soirée, c'est un endroit qui vaut le coup 😊

They made us feel so welcome.Service was exceptional.The food was outstanding, loved everything we had!!!! Forgot to order the focaccia so had it for dessert.We'll be back for sure! This is a great find. Added bonus is the parking lot behind the restaurant.
